Proposition 65 Warning
I received The Joy tote and wallet with RFID that was aired during her last TS.
Unfortunately there’s a warning on the outside of the box that states this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
I immediately called CS and will be sending this item back today. I’m so angry that we weren’t told ahead of time about this. I never would have ordered this. I don’t know if this will involve the TS or any of the other companion pieces. I ordered the TS and the clothes it all, if it has the same warning they will be going back too.
I never even opened the box that came today. The shipping receipt was in a pouch on the outside of the package. I filled it out and placed it into the pouch and taped it closed.
If the State of California makes this statement then I believe it as well.

I live in California, and many many products that are manufactured in China, have this warning. It is my desire that HSN would offer the items they sell NOT be made in China.

Well.. Still new at posting so couldn’t find edit feature.. I meant to write that I received the 3 TS pieces of rolling luggage w/ tote on Monday Sept 26… Immediately made copies of invoices .. Put back in pouch outside of box.. Never opened the box thank goodness and hauled all three to UPS shipping store within 30 minutes if receiving the shipments. Looked at order status in my actt and still showing only 1 of the 3 rollers returned.. And I will be calling Monday to take care of any shipping charges.. I have over $600 for skin care products or more in my shopping cart right now .. Waiting to see how HSN handles this .. And I want my 2 other rollers at $159 each . To be processed and reflect their return!! Thank you!

I read the reviews and the warning too late… The three TS pieces I ordered had already been shipped and in transit.. So I received all three this past Monday .. Sept 26… I immediately made copies of all invoices which were outside of box thank goodness. I’ve kinky received one email confirmation for 1 piece being returned which is odd.. However, I am calling first thing Monday am. I spend s lot of $$$ with HSN but I’m unwilling to pay for shipping either way since there was NO mention whatsoever about this warning.. Very disappointed and wary now.. 🙁

I purchased 2 additional pieces (XLR dresser and three Clothes It All) and it affects those as well. Additionally, the TSV carry on is too big to carry on. I was able to find only 1 airline that accepts a depth of 10 inches. Joys piece is 10.5 inches.

I was just looking for the luggage reviews, and cannot even locate the product page. There is a message that says – this page is not available. Anybody else try to find the luggage this afternoon?

WHY IS ANYONE EVEN MAKING THIS GARBAGE?!!!! I’M A CANCER SURVIVOR & CANT BELIEVE HSN IS EVEN CARRYING THIS JUNK. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HIGH STANDARDS THAT HSN USED TO HAVE??????!!!!!! P.S. THANKS LADIES (& GENTS POSSIBLY) FOR ALL YOUR POSTINGS. YOU MAY HAVE SAVED SOMEONE’S LIFE! GOD BLESS YOU… (HOPE THEY’RE NOT CHARGING YOU FOR SHIPPING THIS STUFF BACK.)

I just received Joy’s clothes it all. This also came with the Proposition 65 warning on the outside of the box.
I placed a phone call to CS to inform them that this item will be returned. This time I had to open the box to retrieve the shipping slip.
I am going to need to use a hand truck to ship this back. The box is quite large and heavy.

yep. I posted about this long ago. Evine is the only company that posts this right on the page for us to see prior to ordering!!! I learned the hard way most of JM have the disgusting odor that even after attempting to air out in my garage for a month, still smelled horrible and burned my nose breathing anywhere near her items. Buyer beware, huh?

This bill was passed, primarily, due to ignorance. This warning was a referendum in California; however, it applies to things that are generally recognized as safe. Yes, some items are known to be carcinogenic — particulary if you consume them in large quantities — but I do not see anyone here feasting upon handbags. I have found this warning in things from light bulbs, electrical power strips, and a clock radio — again, nothing which would be consumed.
There is no need for alarm. The only people truly oncerned about this are people with a lack of basic scientific knowledge and people afraid of words they cannot pronounce.

Quite a while ago, I’d purchased a gorgeous handbag from a small boutique here. Once I got it home and took out the interior packaging, there was a similar description regarding cancer causing chemicals used in the manufacturing of the handbag. I took it back immediately. The owner of the boutique (“said”) she had no idea and told me she’d no longer be carrying that line. To her credit, she kept her word. That handbag was made in China. My question is, WHY would anyone, that cares about their customers at the very least NOT tell consumers prior to purchase?

Today I received both the luggage and tote/wallet set with the same warning. I immediately called customer service and was referred to a snail mail address in FL: HSN customer account, po box 9090
clearwater, fl 33758, to seek detailed information. Come on HSN!! This is a real concern. Please post a detailed, global explanation so that concerened consumers have the facts, and you don’t have deal with all the subsequent and possibly unnecessary returns! -
Lots and lots of products have this warning. I see it everywhere. I see this warning on Amazon, Home Depot and many others. Home Depot will not sell certain items in California that have this warning as under California Law, they can not be sold.

It would have been nice for this information to have been disclosed on air .
